What will your flat cost?

Four tiers. You know yours before we ride out.

Almost every flat is CHF 99 — any front wheel, and any rear wheel with a normal derailleur. It only gets dearer when the rear wheel really is more work. All four tiers are here, so you know the number before we set off.

  1. most bikes
    CHF99

    Front wheel · classic bike · mid-motor e-bike

    Any front wheel, on any bike — e-bike and cargo included. Plus any rear wheel where the chain runs over a derailleur: classic bike, road bike, MTB, e-bike with the motor at the cranks.

    Is there a derailleur hanging below the rear wheel? Then this is you.

  2. CHF109

    Rear wheel with hub motor or hub gears

    The whole rear wheel has to come out and be re-adjusted afterwards: the motor sits INSIDE the wheel (hub motor), or the gears sit in the hub — Shimano Nexus, Alfine, Rohloff.

    No derailleur, but a fat hub body in the middle of the wheel, usually with a cable attached.

  3. CHF129

    Drum brake at the rear · or a cargo rear wheel

    A rear wheel with a drum or roller brake, whatever the drive — even with a hub motor it stays at this number. And every rear wheel on a cargo bike or longtail.

    The brake cable ends at a closed metal drum in the hub — no pads at the rim, no brake disc.

  4. CHF149

    Cargo or longtail when something has to come off first

    A cargo or longtail rear wheel where side panels, cladding or the brake have to be unbolted before the wheel will come out at all.

    We tell you on the spot, before we start — never afterwards on the bill.

If more than one tier applies, the higher one counts — they are never added up.

In every flat repair

  • A new inner tube in your size
  • Both tyres pumped to the right pressure
  • Chain greased if it needs it
  • Travel by cargo bike within Zurich city

Nothing more — and we charge for nothing more either. If your bike needs a new tyre or anything else, we tell you first and you decide.

Kids bike: the same price as any other bike. Every tier includes travel within the city of Zurich. Outside the city the zone surcharge is added — the number is on the page for that town.

Not sure which tier is yours? Send us a photo of the rear wheel. We name the number before we set off.

VELOV vs. classic workshop

Why drag it there? We come to you.

Most bike workshops in Zurich have 2–14 days waiting time. Plus you have to drag your broken bike there. With VELOV it works differently.
